Megan's appearance on the 4th in Washington, D.C. opens the show. Love the 1st paragraph in the article which like the author describes exactly how I feel when I think of season 1.

Why Megan should be a surprise nominee for the Best Supporting Actress Drama Emmy!
I hear they've cast Krysta Rodriguez as Karen's new roommate.
It's rumored that season 2 will start filming on Monday, July 9.

Can you believe Uma was nominated? And no other actors?
I believe it. Hopefully if they step up the writing more will get noticed next year. The only one that stood a chance, a long shot of a chance it was, was Debra Messing.

I agree, I love Debra's character. Uma I think got the nom the way most nominees do - voters see the name and think 'well, it's a star, she must have been great.' Voters are so complacent (see all Modern Family actors getting nominated every time now. Ho hum.)

Jeremy Jordan according to his Twitter recorded his first song recently. Wonder what it is?

There was also a photo somewhere of Jeremy Jordan on the set with Katherine McPhee earlier this week...
Cannot wait for January!
From the promo that NBC just released it seems to be coming back in the fall, otherwise it is a very mis leading NBC fall promo.
E.Davis I think its the later. Just a bad promo trying to use J-Hud for attention.
and BWW saying they have a preview of Hudson in Smash, when it's simply a two second clip of her saying one line. No Smash teasers, until November please.
I was up in NYC, July 26-29, and I saw posters informing residents that the production would be in the area and equipment where they were shooting "Smash." Unfortunately, I didn't see any actual shooting. I did run into Christian Borle as we were both heading to the 50th/Broadway subway station. I got a little star struck and blurted out, "I really enjoy Glee, er, I mean Smash." He said, "It's fine. I like Glee, too." So, that was fun.

Here is a 17 second new promo for Smash that aired during the Olympics.
Sean Hayes has landed a multi-episode arc on "SMASH". I wonder if his character's new musical is the rival musical that was previously mentioned?
